AIP diet for autoimmune illnesses

P.S. to my post above about AIP. When I said "animal protein," I also meant fish and shellfish. And no nuts are allowed on this diet.
P.P.S. I eliminated sugar in almost all forms from my diet nearly 40 years ago, so what's kept weight on me has been legumes, nuts, celiac-allowable grains, cheese and eggs. Hence my concern about losing weight on AIP.

Hello, I have Celiac Disease and chronic Epstein Barr Virus. I was diagnosed with Epstein Barr Virus 13 years ago. I had to go on the AIP diet for my gut. It was hard but it worked. There are a lot of good recipes on the internet and cookbooks now. Last year, I got COVID and it triggered my Epstein Barr Virus. I have to go back on the diet to help me heal. I just keep reminding myself it is temporary. You will get through it. I made a menu for the week and keep repeating the same meals every week. It helped me stay on it and made my meal prep easier. Good luck!!! You can do this. Just remember - your body and health will thank you.
